Troubleshooting CSV upload errors

In the site list CSV, every level of the site hierarchy needs its own row for the upload to succeed. In the example below, the upload has failed because "Test region" requires its own row in the CSV.

Rows do not have references to their parent rows.

To troubleshoot the issue, ensure that each level is represented by its own row. You may need to re-download your site list as a CSV to ensure every level of the site hierarchy has its own row.

Each site or level needs the name of all levels of the site hierarchy it nests in its row as columns. For example, region rows require the name of the region in addition to the area and site nested under the region.

In the example below, the upload has failed because "Test area" is missing in the highlighted row.

Example of an error when the CSV has gaps in some of the rows.

Your CSV may potentially contain a deleted Site ID. To troubleshoot the issue, try re-downloading your site list as CSV, editing the newly re-downloaded CSV, and reuploading the file.

Example of an error when uploading sites via CSV fails.

Add the impacted users to your organization and try again. Alternatively, you can remove the affected email addresses from the "members" column in your CSV.
